Dr. Richardson, Northwestern uni

Teacher and Truth.
Dr. Richardson said: "The Ideal
teacher has a first-hand vita!, living
relationship to the truth. He has u
personal as well as a,living relation
ship. He sustains an equally vital
and personal relationship to those
who are to receive the truth.
'The Ideal teacher is interested in
fitting truth and lido together. It is
one thing to have possession of tht
truth and another to be nble to lm
t part ths truth. He must bo aide
to present truth vividly, to quicken
in others the desire after tho truth
and to set those desires aflame."
Dr. Richardson interpreted the
teaching of Jesus by the following
four concepts. “Jesus was known to
hla contemporaries not as a philos
opher. not as a philanthropist, not as
a literary man. but as the first teach
er."

who’s
who in
the book
of fashions has broken out in
the column this week. It’s
fascinating. For* just as the
Bookman's Monthly Score
hints at what the world is
thinking about, the best sell
ers at Thomnson-Belden’s are
a guide to what smart women
are wearing. The ratings
given below are based on our
sales records for the pas* four
weeks.
- A Close Count
Black satins had only a nar
row margin over navy in the
silk frocks, and those priced
$59.50 seemed best liked. Out
of the maze of my grand
totals and averages, I decided
a stunning black satin model
with brilliant peasant embroi
deries must be the materiali
zation of the composite taste
of our dress patrons, for in
price, color and material it
tallied with my count. In
cloth frocks, navy Poiret twill
was the expected winner and
the group at $49.50 the popu
lar price.
$98J>0 Our Batting
Average in Coats
Fur-trimmed dress coats were
ahead at the end of the first
inning in the fall fashion
series in our Coat Section.
Looking at a beautiful black
Teldyne model with great
fluffy collar of gray fox
shown at this price, I imme
diately felt this style would
be a pennant winner straight
through to the end of the
season.
The Kite's Tail
Wuh blouse* tied to the kite
of the sweater’s great popu
larity have sailed into their
present enviable position with
ease. And our Peter Pan
dimities are first in their
class (as the automobile pub
licists are fond of saying),
because of their clever hand
work. Hand-hemstitched,
hand-embroidered and edged
with handmade Irish picot,
they are keen values.
Fabric Ratings
40-inch Satin Canton in
brown at $3.75 a yard takes
first place in silks, while 54
inch needle twill in navy at
$4.75 leads the woolens.
First in Footwear
Do you ask me why more
women buy Thompson-Belden
Special silk hose than any
other kind? Because at its
price of $1.95 you can’t sur
pass it for service and beauty.
And why are the shoe shades
now leading? Doubtlessly be
cause the Shoe Section sells
more slippers in beaver, otter
and other shades of sand than
any other color.
Charnoisettes Throw
Down tlte Gauntlet
—to all rivals in gloves and
take first honors with a strap- •
wrist style in the new oak
shade at $1.35 a pair.
Handkerchief Index
Registers Color
My archaic notion that prob
ably the majority of women
still used white 'kerchiefs
was rudely dispelled on being
told of the dozens and dozens
of these colored linen ones
Omaha women have carried
off for 12Vi each. In rose,
blue and orchid.
Figures in Corsets
Sales records show wrap
around girdles suit the great
est number in our corset sec
tion. And the pretty models
of aeotionnl elastic and flesh
brocade at $5 make them thi
price leader. No style Ir
knit union suits was dost
competition for low neck
sleeveless suits in k n e r
length. Carter or Richeliet
brands are priced $1.
.4 Sales Prodigy
When women send to us from
Canada and Mexico, from
Montana and New Hampshire
for so small a trifle as a hair
net, the value must bo a
knockout. We are rather
puffed up over this inter
national reputation of Sonia
nets, but Omnha women have
long made the cash register
ring with their approval of
these nets at 50c a dozen for
the single mesh and 65c
for the double. G. P. S,
